    Hi Jiawen, you are experience the same thing as me too and i believe it applies to all :D my first few days of cleaning is no matter how many times you vacuum or mop, it will always be dusty. Vacuum and mopping will settled all, you don need to go through that complicated process ^^

    EDIT: Don't sweep, you just make the dust go somewhere else in your house :)

    Singtel will never be on my list for anything.

    I will choose Viewquest or starhub. Viewquest is you will be fully supported by them and good customer services, but a bit expensive, no personal experience with them. Starhub, my parents house has been with them for more than 10 years, quick in getting line up if it is down. And i have forgotten paying the bill a few times and there is twice whereby the line got cut off but resume almost straight away after you call them about it. Overall quite good experience with them. They seem to limit when you are torrenting.

    I regret a bit for MR because their customer service is almost non-existence, you can be put on hold for more than 45 minutes and still no one picking up your calls -_- basically you will be like getting in touch with them on the first time installation and that's it. Some china website always got problem and they are slow in getting it done. The only positive side is cheap with 1gbps, and if you download a lot.

    Haha ya, can't wait! How r you in your new home so far? :lol:

    I think shopping on taobao and tmall + all the liaising on aliwangwang with the sellers and QQ with my agent definitely up-ed my chinese level a lot.

    Win-win! Cheap stuff + brush up my chinese at the same time :good:

    But buying from SG has its pros as well. No lemon goods. I'm now crossing fingers my stuff come safe and sound!

    So far so good, now always lazing around during weekend than going out..lol

    I am looking forward to the stuff you are buying..hehe ^^

    Oh! Then there's a high likelihood we got the same salesperson :lol:

    For the hot water piping, it's not so much as to lay new pipes as there's already concealed piping done up by HDB, but to connect extra water piping to the concealed piping. If your contractor don't know about that, you may like to consider getting a plumber to do that job. Gas leak would be scary if it's not done properly..

    And your reno is going fast! Will you be sharing your home reno too? Share the lovely post-reno pics with us :wub:

    Yup will be using digital lock. My ID or his contractor can help to install FOC.. There's a youtube video on how to self-install and it looks idiot proof enough.

    Btw, pardon my failing memory, but are you in blk E as well? :P

    My reno is rather a simple one, i only do tv console feature wall, round l-box/false ceiling, kitchen cabinet, master bedroom wardrode,curtain and some misc stuff ^^ not much to detail down the stuff but have taken some photos. :D

    I am very tempting to get a digital lock even before i got my flat but my wife don want/like, :( but recently we chance upon a neighbour doing reno near her house, and we decided to kpo a bit and by chance that owner is using a digital lock and the neighbour demo for us to see, i think there is a card and passcode, and if i never look properly at the digital lock, i could hardly see where to press ^^ and that is when she say "if you want then go buy loh" Haha :D

    Nope, i am at blk B ^^

    Haha, maybe it was the same person, or it could be the truth? i was at the Triple One branch, what bout you?

    My macro fe10 is on the service yard wall nearer the toilet. Just asked my ID, the water piping won't be up so fast, likely after carpentry is done as I am not overlaying toilet or changing the HDB shower fixture. When it's up I'll post pictures? But I doubt I'll know how they link them up though.. Left it to my ID to coordinate.. :lol:

    My one also at somerset branch...haha

    Sure, looking forward to your picture ^^ my contractor don know that we will need to lay new pipe to both bathroom and we also don know about it..headache..haha.

    Today my contractor going to do up all the carpentery work, i think should be finished by this saturaday, hehe, later my wife and i are going up to have a look, so excited. haha

    By the way, you are using digital lock? How are they going to install on the door?

    That's great since u and wife have the time to monitor! Guess can save up quite abit :)

    Yup I'm using city gas heater, think uploaded some pics earlier, we chose macro fe10 due to recommendation by the salesperson n the assurance tt there's low complain rates

    Yeah! ^^

    Did we get the same salesperson or city gas is pushing all using macro fe10. The salesperson that attended to me, also recommend the macro fe10 and gave the same reason as low complain rate, so in the end we also go for macro fe10.

    I saw your picture, you fixed your macro fe10 near the toliet, but where or how are you going to get the cold water in and hot water out? And how does it link up the hot water to both of the toliet? Actually i am a bit confuse about how they go about delivery the hot water to the whole house.

    Hello Le0nHart, I remember you ;)

    I'm not using any demo to control my downlights, just the traditional switches..

    Are coordinating your own reno? Or you got a contractor?

    Hi ^^ I got a contractor but sometime my wife and i do some stuff ourselves too.

    Do you use city gas water heater?

    Hi Jiawen ^^ i think i roughly know which unit is yours judging from the picure you posted here ^^

    I am the one asking about the lighting few pages back :D I just got all my lights and bath rooms accessories installed, i used 6 downlight in my living room and led strip for my cove light, and for mine, 6 is really bright enough, lucky i did not go for 8, and saved some $$$ from it ^^ and also install a cute mini crystal light for my entrance, whereby there is like a reflection on the ceiling :)

    I see your one is nicely done up and got a really good and reponsible ID where you can rest your mind and let him do his jobs ^^ too bad for me that i am not engaging any ID, if not i will engage your ID. ^^

    By the way, do you happen to use remote control to control your downlight or any lights?

    Glad you finally got your keys ^^

    Can i ask you, what downlight and cove light(if any) are you using? I saw you have 8 downlight in your living room near the sofa area, what will be the watts and will it be bright enough? I remember last time while i am hunting for ID and contractor, they recommend 12 downlight for the whole of living room, that time i was thinking i only need 7(6 at the sofa area and just 1 near the entrance).

    Most current vinyl system use click type (interlocking) for ease of installation. e.g. evorich or bilrich

    I have evorich installed in most of my place except bathroom and yard area. No skirting.

    Hi, evorich vinyl are expensive and i can't find a gd reason/s for me to take evorich.

    As for the skirting, a lot of people i spoke to also recommend without skirting but will it pose any problem? How does is it for you without the skirting?

    As Asking4Help pointed out, they have various thickness. When I was last there few months ago, I saw 2 tops displayed - white (didn't note the model) and dark (Piatra Grey). They have nice looking samples of some other models at a small rack with a handy Caesarstone brochure which isn't easy to come across at local shops.

    Hi, now i remember that they do have a small rack with caesarstone brochure, but during that time i was not into that yet :( will pay a visit there again to see the brochure. Anyone know what will be the recommended thickness for the table top and is the thickness is like for what kind of work?

    Btw for those that are interested in caesarstone, their showroom is at their HQ at bukit batok, but the problem is, it only open during weekdays from 9am - 6pm :(

    For Caesarstone, you can pay a visit to Blum at Ubi. It's not meant to be a Caesarstone showroom but they do have 1 or 2 quartz tops on display with other samples at one corner.

    Hi looneygas, i been there before to see their blum product and saw it caesarstone table top, there is only 1 colour which is white and i find it is much thinner. Is it suppose to be thinner?
